Is freedoom still being worked on?

It was last updated in 2015 are they still working on it?

yes

Okay.

One more thing what is freedoom for? zdoom, the original boom or dos?

According to the download page, Odamex and PrBoom+ are recommended, so pretty much any source port as long as it is limit-removing and supports Boom extensions.

Freedoom needs Boom-compatible ports to run most of its levels properly. But given time, it will be compatible with DOS/vanilla Doom someday,

Yes it is. You can check out the progress at http://freedoom.soulsphere.org

I tried it today, i liked the change done with the pillars and the medikit pickups the news soundtracks and the bugfixes but i was hoping to see raymoohawk's sprites in action.
I'm really looking forward to see them in the next update.

lets see what the next update looks like

I thought the target was limit removing now?

Unfortunately not. It's still vanilla.

The idea was proposed by our very own Sodaholic, approved by fraggle, but nothing decisive happened.

Hello,

are you really sure that prboom or freedoom is still under dev?

Yes and yes.

Yeah, Freedoom's still being worked on. I said I'd do another map, so I should hope so. :P

Freedoom: Yes, things are just moving slowly.
Prboom: AFAIK no, but there is a fork called Prboom-Plus that should be alive.

what's the largest difference between prboom and prboom-plus?
in few words..


while installing prboom on linux, there is installed 60mb, with freedoom and prboom, and prboom-plus... kinda complicated to understand.
